Age Specific / Adult Children

Already at the center of winter-centric family fun, Keystone Resort in Colorado upped the ante with new and revamped family-focused lodging. With accommodation options for everyone, from the nuclear four to the entire extended family, guests of all ages can stay and play in one convenient location in the heart of Colorado ski country.

Ski Tip Lodge

For families of four or fewer looking to unwind and retreat into the mountains, the Ski Tip Lodge is a historical stay surrounded by beautiful snow-capped slopes. Originally used as a stagecoach stop in the 1800s, the Ski Tip Lodge is one of the longest operating stays in the ski lodge industry. After a recent refresh, the historic lodge now boasts the same old-school charm from its original inception, but with added, elevated touches of comfort and sophistication, contending with a luxury après-ski stay. This B&B offers cozy comforts of home after a long day on the slopes so guests can unplug from the world and sit fireside on the plushy lounge seating while warming up before dinner.

 

River Run Townhomes

With room enough for the whole family, extended included, River Run Townhomes offer a home away from home, but with all-new furnishings, luxury design and spacious accommodations for the ski season. The brand-new accommodations sit across the way from River Run Village and offer easy access to an on-site bus stop to transport guests to local activities. A short ride away from local shops, dining, bars and winter excursions, guests can divide and conquer by day and meet up by night, or vice versa. Back at the townhouse, the spacious accommodations include a large living room with grand fireplace, three–four bedrooms and a smaller living room for reading and smaller gatherings, as well as several private guest balconies.

Hyatt Place Keystone

Also offering convenient access to local attractions and wintery family fun, the Hyatt Place Keystone opened as the first Hyatt-branded hotel in Keystone, Colorado, back in the winter of 2017. The Hyatt Place Keystone has all the ski-centric activity offerings the resort is known for, but with the added conveniences of the Hyatt brand. Guests enjoy all the amenities offered by Hyatt, including complimentary WiFi and 24-hour services, but with the Keystone resort’s outdoorsy offerings and attention to family-friendly activities.

Choosing a convenient and comfortable stay for your ski trip can really elevate your family trip. With easy access to all the best locales and activities offered on the resort, but with the added privacy of a family home or wintery lodge just off the beaten path, guests can be active and unwind — all at their leisure.
